**GOD’S LAW IS THE ONLY RELIGION**…religion cannot be made, only a path to understand it can be made – AARTI WORSHIP AS EXPLAINED BY GURU NANAK DEV JI, one cannot do it, one’s consciousness can only participate in the Aarti already happening | THE RIGHT QUESTION ABOUT CUTTING HAIR | ਧਰਮ ਬਣਾਇਆ ਨਹੀ ਜਾ ਸਕਦਾ ਪਰ ਧਰਮੀ ਬਣਿਆ ਜਾ ਸਕਦੈ | 17.01.17, Dakala Diwaan | Dhadrianwale | MUST WATCH & READ…

‘Aarti’ is a ritual of worship in which light from wicks soaked in ghee on a ‘Thali’ (or plate) is waved in circular motions around a deity whilst singing its praises. This was and still is performed in the Mandir temples.

The Creator Lord of the universe cannot be confined within a small idol. In fact, His expanse cannot be known. An idol cannot be God; no person can create God in the form of an idol and neither can God be replicated in such a way. Guru Ji says, “Thhaapiaa N Jaae Keethaa N Hoe” i.e. He cannot be established, He cannot be created.

Guru Nanak Dev Ji explained how the Creator Lord is omnipresent and all-pervading throughout the universe. The fact is one cannot perform ‘Aarti’ because it is already happening. Guru Ji beautifully explains the splendour of this unaided ‘Aarti’ as follows:

Gagan Mai Thhaal Rav Cha(n)dh Dheepak Banae Thaarikaa Ma(n)ddal Janak Mothee ||
Upon that cosmic plate of the sky, the sun and the moon are the lamps. The stars and their orbs are the studded pearls.

Dhhoop Malaaanalo Pavan Chavaro Karae Sagal Banaraae Foola(n)th Jothee ||1||
The fragrance of sandalwood in the air is the temple incense, and the wind is the fan. All the plants of the world are the altar flowers in offering to You, O Luminous Lord. ||1||

Kaisee Aarathee Hoe || Bhav Kha(n)ddanaa Thaeree Aarathee ||
What a beautiful Aartee, lamp-lit worship service this is! O Destroyer of Fear, this is Your Ceremony of Light.
